RedditWanderer,

Would have been way funnier to make it all “macaroni” or “pasta” and leave one tiny section for “spaghetti”, because somehow that’s the distinction people make.

No, that would’ve been accurate.

remotelove,

Shush. Don’t confuse me with facts.

TheSealStartedIt,

In persian “macaroni” is actually the umbrella term for all noodles. So persian macaroni are spaghetti most of the time.

nyoooom,

But there are no noodles here, only pasta, noodles are usually in Asian meals

noodles are pasta but pasta aren’t necessarily noodles since all pasta is spaghetti, as the meme foretells.

Tlaloc_Temporal,

Important western noodles include spatzle and egg noodles!

I’d argue that pierogi/vareniki count too, but I understand if you disagree.

Spaghetti is 1 type of long noodles. You have spaghetti, tagliatelle, bucatini, linguine, vermicelli…

DieguiTux8623,

I don’t know whether it’s a urban legend, but apparently Icelandic has a hundred or so names for snow. We have many specific words for what is important for our survival. 🍝🍕🤌

Here in Sweden the rumor says that its the Inuits who have 100 words for snow.

Agent641,

Here in Australia the rumor is that snow is made up by other countries to flex on us!

ObviouslyNotBanana,
@ObviouslyNotBanana@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah but you also have to turn your monitors upside down to read and are constantly living with spiders in your ears.

Slovene,

And snakes in their toilets.

Fun info about that for meme aficionados: that expression and its various clones are the basis for the general concept of those reusable templates called “snowclones”.

But if Italians have 100 words for spaghett, did somebody touch mine?

DieguiTux8623,

TIL something, thanks! 🙏

SatansMaggotyCumFart,

I made love to an Inuit lady once and after she had a thousand words for disappointment.

Pringles,

Same with Inuit. I guess it makes sense when snow is such a dominant part of your life.
